Involvements[edit]
A fine start here. We need a section for Event and Heart involvement yet. I don't encounter many that needing documented nowadays, but they seem to be the ones that still pop up. SarielV 15:30, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
- I added event involvement, but I think we decided to omit 'heart involvement' in an earlier discussion. —Ventriloquist 18:51, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
Vendors subsection[edit]
Current:
== Vendors == <!-- for items that are used as a currency for vendors --> {{vendor table|currency={{subst:PAGENAME}}}}
I find the name of this section quite irritating and would suggest to change it to "Used to buy" or something similiar. —Kvothe (talk) 13:20, 12 October 2019 (UTC)
- The section used to be merge with
Used in
, so the name was more relevant. As it stands now, yeah, it might seem awkward. We could either use your suggestion for the name, orCurrency for
, which was one of the older ways we referred to the 'mechanic'. —Ventriloquist 15:45, 12 October 2019 (UTC)
- Yeah agreed, saw this being used the other day and was scratching my head. "Currency for" would be my preference. -Chieftain Alex 17:19, 12 October 2019 (UTC)
Recommended achievement template[edit]
What's the recommended template to be used in the section achievement? The formatting guide says
<!-- for items that can be acquired through achievements; always use plural for these sections --> === Achievements === {{Achievement list|reward={{subst:PAGENAME}}}}
but both templates, {{achievement list}} and {{achievement box}}, are equally used, ~300~400 times each. E.g. "/Shiverplus" Emote Tome (using list) and "/Shiver" Emote Tome (used box). -Tolkyria (talk) 13:59, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
- Only {{achievement list}} should be used. —Kvothe (talk) 16:01, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
- Removing query, ~800 items are using {{achievement list}}. --Tolkyria (talk) 20:08, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
